This woman needs help, and since I'm her bestie...

I'm not a bad person, not like that horny cow, Xaviera. In a moment of insanity, I agreed to co-write an erotic romance with her. So far, the working title is now, My Husband, Your Wife, Our Child.   Xavi came up with the premise and it intrigued me enough to consider the possibility of becoming a co-author. Here is how she pitched the idea to me.

Alex, I know you think I'm some kind of freaky pervert. (let me start this email again. Of course I'm a freaky pervert. I write erotica. Not that romantic slushy crap you put out, but down and dirty, booty smackin' naughty stuff that your readers probably freak out at... oops! Sorry. Allow me to start yet again)

Dear Ms Bahscot, I've been a fan of the crap you write for quite some time. I turn to you whenever I'm on my third joint and just want to drift off. Okay, some of the shit you write is good (I did say some, and yes, you're funnier than me in a clean sort of way) but I think you could do better, which is why I'm going to offer you the privilege of co-writing a novella with me. Now don't go all gushy on me and start crying (that is what you romance writers do, isn't it?) just hear me out. Here is my idea.

The book revolves around two couples. A free spirited Caucasian couple, who are best friends with a more uptight African/American couple. Why does the African/American couple have to be the uptight pair? Are you going to malign my idea before you've even heard it? Sheesh! Give a girl a break. The reason the African/American couple is more uptight is because the woman (Angie) desperately wants to have a child, but is unable to conceive. Her husband (Luther) refuses to adopt. (What a douche-bag, right?) Anyway, it turns out that her bestie (Beth) is prepared to have Luther's child, but only if the pregnancy is assured using natural methods and not artificial insemination. (I know, right?) Kurt (Beth's husband) has no problem with Luther doinking his wife (free spirit, remember) but Angie has issues with her husband laying some fat black pipe down on her best friend (I know! She's the one who wants the kid, right, go figure. I'd do it) Anyway, the more I thought about it the more I realized that some of the issues and possibilities were slushy and others right up my alley (or more accurately, Beth's alley) Slushy is you and slutty is me. Perfect, right? So! When do we start?
                                 
                                      Your co-authoring bestie,
                                                                              Xaviera Spice

p.s. I know I haven't sent you through anything to add to my site, but I had to go away for a short while. (and no, I don't mean one of those institutions that employ guards) Let's just say somebody was looking for me and I didn't care to be found, and leave it at that, okay? The stuff's going to be legal shortly anyway.

Update on my writing projects

Well, September is drawing ever closer and the number of things I have to do seems never ending. I have ordered three more book covers. One for The Love Legacy, another for Betrayal's Cruel Song and a third for a Christmas box set containing 7 romance stories. They include contemporary romance, romantic comedy, second chance romance, second chance at life romance, and romance with an unusual twist. I shall post the covers as soon as I'm happy with them. I'll do the same on my Alex Bahscot FB page.

Apart from that, I'm knee deep in formatting my books and making sure my brand is uniform. Legal pages, copyright pages and acknowledgement pages have to be brought up to date. (thanking all those who helped in editing and cover design, as well as those offering valuable insight on a range of topics, is a pleasure, not a chore)

Oh, well. Back to the grind, lol.
